Cool, Now for BBEdit I mapped f19 to escape (using QuicKeys) and I can open or dismiss it with very nearly the same keystroke. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups. To post to this group, send email to bbedit@googlegroups.

A way to define a keystroke to dismiss live find?

2010-04-30 Thread AlanR
I always like to dismiss things that take up screen space when they're not in use and I'm looking for a way to dismiss the live find toolbar with a keystroke. I've long used f18 to bring up the old quick find and it never mattered if its little window got lost under something else, it was essentia

For what it's worth... I can see where you're coming from and I had issues with the availability of the search options. My solution (with an aluminum 19 function key keyboard) was to assign within BBEdit F18 as Quick Find, Shift F18 as Find and Control-Shift F18 as multi-file search. It's now au

There's a real simple solution - use another keyboard macro program like QuicKeys or Keyboard Maestro. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group. To post to this group, send email to bbedit@go

OK, since no one answered my question instantly (waaa...) I was forced to experiment a little more. It does depend on which type of file you choose in the file-type pop- up in the lower left hand corner of an editing window. But that doesn't explain why I get different versions of the palette whe

This is undoubtably a question I should be able to answer myself but it may be quicker to ask rather than explore. Sometimes the ascii palette shows up with the escape character shown as the “$” equivalent and sometimes it shows up with the php equivalent. For example tab, sometimes it shows as

I'd really like BBEdit to remember project window settings. I work with a Powerbook and a 20" Cinema display. I've found a neat trick where I aligned the two screens just right. The Powerbook is on the left and if I open the files pane on the left (left of the Projects pane) I get the two on the P
